Why is communication focused on disciples rather than the masses?

“

True communication is an alchemical dance between the master and the receptive disciple; it thrives in intimacy, where depth is found, not in the noise of the masses.

— Osho
Synthesized from Source definition
Core Insight:
According to Osho, true communication is alchemical and happens only with those who can understand and receive it; hence the master 'sings his songs' only to the receptive disciple and 'drinks his wine' with the friend who knows. Speaking to the masses dilutes and distorts the essence; intimacy and attunement allow transmission, not information—depth requires a tuned listener.
You share deep songs and special wine only with people who can really taste and understand them, not with a noisy crowd.
Why this matters practically
- Focus your energy on relationships where understanding is possible.
- Prioritize depth and receptivity over reach and noise.
- Cultivate inner readiness to truly receive wisdom.
